Clothing items should be given to a clothing and garment restoration company. In most cases they are able to return emergency clothing items within a few hours.

If you are concerned about your plants or flowers that were in the area of a fire bring them outside (if temperature permits) or to a clean environment. Again our cleaning crew can help you with this task.

If the area is completely dry you can vacuum carpeted areas. Make sure your vacuum has a HEPA filter to prevent particles from entering into the air.

Do NOT attempt to wash walls or ceilings. These need to be cleaned with special chemicals that will take the particles off of the walls. In many cases the walls will then have to be painted to cover the discoloration that smoke and soot can cause.

Change your air filters to help eliminate the smoke smell and help trap particles from reentering back into the air. It may also be helpful to place cheesecloth or another thick fabric over vents to capture particles from entering into the home or business.

We had a large fire in our home last year. This was horrible and we lost most of our personal items. The team at Smoke Damage Cleanup Pros did a good job explaining the process, walking step by step with us, and returning our home to pre loss conditions.
